Ooou goodness you murdered that thing out.. I absolutely love this!!! I want to do the same with my F16. Only thing I don't like, is the charcoal grey on the bottom half of my rear bumper. Still have to darken my front dvr/psgr windows a bit then I'll post up here as well—and of course darken up those rims!

ah my bad, thought you meant the loaner you had was an M40i. The last loaner I had was an M40i and it was quick, but I just can't get past the interior. Seems so cheap compared to the X5

I found the new X3 more leg room in the back than my X5 when in my optimal front seat position. Weird...

Really? I found it to be much smaller all around... especially in the cockpit area. It felt cheaply constructed to me. Just my opinion.

Hey man! I have a very similar F15. Forgive me if you have posted this somewhere before, but what did you do for the red lip on the front?

I am totally thinking of doing this, as I have black 21's staggered with red brake calipers that look awesome. I added the black vent covers like you have, and am also considering blacking out the reflectors on the front. I see you did the body color, I like that too.

Thanks!

I think I covered it in my mod thread, basically I just used 3M auto tape for the red accent.
